Art
Display during Esterhazy Days
- June 26, 2010 - former Harvard Zavedosky studio, Esterhazy, Sask.,
graciously offered by Brian and Elaine
Tochor. On display will be artwork and photography
of various local artists, and a collection of books written by local
writers.
More details to come. (Note that Esterhazy Days run June 25 and 26
- the art display will only be on June 26.)
Digital
Photography Workshop - Summer,
2010 - date, time and place TBA
This workshop will be offered under the astute guidance of photojournalist
Helen Solmes,
who worked with the late renowned Harvard Zavedosky some years back
in offering a similar
workshop for photographers. Take note that this workshop is NOT about
learning how to use
your digital camera. A prior workshop is hopefully planned to take
care of that aspect. This workshop will
focus on how to get the best possible picture with your digital camera
from the point of view of composition,
lighting, angle and mood. The class is expected to fill up fast, so
watch for confirmed details
and how to preregister
on this site.
